Welcome to Food Crimes! This community is here to collect all and any post about cursed food and generally unusual consumables.
Right now, here’s the rules:
- Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
- It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.
- No AI posts whatsoever, and any images that were altered (Ex: Photoshop, Gimp) need to be tagged.
How to tag:
To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz
Here are the current tags:
- Edited - The image was manipulated with editing software.
- OC - You made this cursed food yourself!
- Meta - Relating to the community itself.
Finished checking out all the posts here? Also checkout !shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca!
(BTW, I’m looking for someone to help mod here! I myself would not be enough if this community goes beyond a few posts a day.)

not really. there isn't really an impressive food scene here. it's fairly one dimensional where we're essentially only good at raw or boiled seafood. anything cooked and seasoned here is asking for too much when we're majority white here and where even a majority of them are coming from countries very notable for having bland food. there are ethnic enclaves in New England but even their food id say is not great taste wise and expensive compared to other cities since New England is so white that the demand for better ethnic food is low and it's an actual challenge for ethnic food locations to source legitimate ingredients at a fair price.
I said good, not impressive.
that's fair then
